Have you tried the usual? All theory, no practice.
1. Put a backslash in front of the @.
2. Put double quotes around your file/path specification.
3. As a last ditch effort maybe try using a '*' wildcard and rename the
files ...?
4. Find whacking stick. Use liberally on person who put an @ sign in a
file name. :)
